A CU310 Control Unit can perform the communication, openloop and closed-loop control functions for one Power Module. The performance expansion is not required in this case.

In addition to the firmware, the CompactFlash card also contains licensing codes that are required to enable firmware options (currently, the performance expansion and the Safety Integrated Extended Functions). The Safety Integrated Extended Functions (Safe Stop 2, Safe Operating Stop, Safely Limited Speed, Safe Speed Monitor) must be ordered for each axis via order codes (F..) in addition to the order number.

The firmware options can also be enabled on-site, for example, if the performance expansions required are not known at the time of ordering or the Safety Integrated Extended functions are to be enabled retrospectively. You will need the serial number of the CompactFlash card and the order number of the firmware option to be enabled. With this information, you can purchase the associated license code from a license database and enable the firmware option. The license code is only valid for the CompactFlash card declared and cannot be transferred to other CompactFlash cards.
